Almost 1 in 4 children is affected by skin disease.
For many of them—and their families—the burden is extreme, treatment options are limited, and the pace of research is too slow.
The Pediatric Dermatology Research Alliance (PeDRA) exists to:

inspire new ideas

sustain active research

build a community
Through these efforts, our goal is to improve the lives of children with skin disease and their families.
